Reviews of Delhi Crime 2
Delhi crime 2 – a groundbreaking International Emmy Award-nominated true crime trial – suffers from what I like to call overtime issues. I mean the case where the full arc season was resumed in another season after it became popular – which undermined the effectiveness of the premise especially in the process.
When Delhi Crime debuted on Netflix in 2019, it was apparently meant to be a limited miniseries. Created and directed by Richie Mehta, this seven-episode series recreates the 2012 Delhi gangrene investigation, starring Delhi Police as heroes and victims, but never criminals. Despite its tendency to blindly side with the official version of the show and ignore systemic loopholes, Delhi Crime made for an interesting television season.
Much of this stems from the nature of the case described – the 2012 gang rape and its investigation remains a matter of debate to this day. The case, as etched as vividly in the public memory today as it was a decade ago, has become a symbol of crime and punishment in this country.
That’s what delhi crime 2 is missing – it’s back with a new director, writer, cinematographer, editor and assassin – and why the series may not have needed an update in the first place. For one, season two struggled to find the subtext that underlined the narrative of season one. Based on Moon Gazer, a chapter in the book Khaki Files: Inside Stories of Police Investigations by former Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar, this season pits DCP Vartika Chaturvedi (Shefali Shah) and his partners against a gang of ruthless assassins and murders a dispossessed rich senior. in South Delhi.
Delhi Crime 2 According to Kumar’s records, these heinous killings were carried out by members of the Scheduled Tribe in the 1990s and the victims included young women. The adaptation diverges significantly from the source material, using it only as a basis and tempering it with political and social biases, but not being sufficiently vocal. But even so, the identity of the (revised) killer, or the nature of the murder, says little about the hierarchies and social conditions that create criminals. His revenge is so personal that space shouldn’t be political.
Delhi Crime 2 is Directed by Tanuj Chopra and set in 2013, the five-episode spin-off season follows Vartika and her team’s efforts to catch the culprit responsible for a series of serial murders. Their brutal tactics – beating their victims to death, wearing vests and boxer shorts during murders, and leaving oil spills at the scene – are similar to that of a group of serial killers dubbed the “Kachcha Banyan Gang,” which they last became active in the 1990s. The fact that the group’s members are made up of people from the Registered Tribe, which are classified as ‘criminals born’ in colonial India, makes Delhi police investigations all the more hostile.
Delhi Crime 2 plot detour (Mayank Tewari, Shubhra Swarup, Vidit Tripathi, Ensia Mirza credited to the script; dialogue by Sanyukta Chawla Sheikh and Virat Basoya) taking a detour to contemplate the identity of the killers is a smart move. By portraying the perpetrators as a group of impersonators in disguise by exploiting a systemic bias against designated tribes, Delhi Crime established itself as a solid platform for social commentary. The show goes to great lengths to highlight the mistakes of the police in maintaining the language of colonial violence used against these tribes to this day.

In fact, crime in Delhi wants to hold Delhi police accountable for their excesses. The show’s stance on the hot topic of prison violence – practiced both openly and insightfully throughout the season – is unclear. For example, in one scene, Vartika tells an SHO retiree not to leave a mark on the suspect in order to order him to beat her. in another, he reprimanded two officers on his team for hitting the suspect. What we should think about police violence depends entirely on who we sympathize with – for its part, the show favors the police, who see prison violence as a catalyst for justice.(Delhi Crime 2)
However, I would say that this season’s biggest weakness is reducing Crime in Delhi to a formula version of a police and criminal chase. This means five episodes seem so disinterested in exploring everything that goes between cops catching criminals that they lose the ability to investigate criminal intent. The souls of the perpetrators or even their connection to evil is a very neglected topic this season.
Maybe that’s why they don’t seem like a credible threat to societal harmony – Garg and the writers struggle to connect the dots between class, power, and gender. It feels like a missed opportunity simply because, like last season, Delhi Crime 2 maintains its reputation for sleek and stylish: David Bolen’s camera is very attentive (the crimes committed in the penultimate episode are scary to watch) and Ceiri Torjussen’s camera work complements the quality atmosphere.
Likewise, the delhi crime 2 draws its strength from the impressive characters that Mehta created for the world of the show. The presence of DCP Vartika Chaturvedi and his team (Rajesh Tailang, Anurag Rao and Rasika Dugal) provided a show that felt different and effective. It helps that the ensemble cast seems to have perfected the minimalist art – Shah leads the show in fine form, but it’s Tahil and Dougal’s understated twists that give the show emotional resonance.
If there’s a need for a talented cast to step up an extensive television season, Delhi Crime 2 is a firm favourite. But I want the creators to honor Tilotoma Shome with equal dignity—the actress’ cameo role was signed and immature, a mistake that alienated audiences from her character. In this case, watching this season’s show feels like eating a plate of food that looks pretty but isn’t entirely satisfying.
